Click to viewApple’s iPhone may have been announced first, but Samsung’s Ultra Smart F700 (announced yesterda) seems to be one-up Apple’s effort in a few feature categories.

If you’ll take a little journey with me, we’ll compare the iPhone and the F700 and see which one comes out on top—on paper.

Apple iPhone Samsung F700
Screen Resolution 480×320 at 3.5-inches 440×240 at 2.78-inches
Touchscreen Yes, With Multitouch Yes, With Drag and Drop
Connectivity Quad-Band GSM (850, 900, 1800, 1900), EDGE, 802.11b/g, Bluetooth 2.0 Tri-band GSM, HSDPA, EDGE
Camera 2-megapixel 5-megapixel with Auto-Focus
Keyboard Touchscreen/onscreen Slide-out qwerty with VibeTonz
Email HTML Email Unknkown (probably not HTML)
Browser Full HTML Browser Full HTML Browser
Codec Support Standard iPod Support MPEG4, H.263, H.264, Real MP3, AAC+, eAAC+, Real
Storage 4-8GB Unknown onboard + microSD expansion

So it seems like although Samsung’s F700 has more megapixels, a little bit more format support, an actual keyboard, and 3G connectivity, the iPhone has it beat on screen size/resolution, HTML Email, storage, widgets, google maps, and push email. Plus, of course, the whole built-in iPod thing.

We’re looking forward to seeing more of the Samsung F700 next week at 3GSM.
